Gigs in Paisley This Weekend

Fans that were disappointed in Tom Urie’s recently cancelled gig will be happy to know that Paisley’s very own multi talented popular act is back in The Bungalow tomorrow afternoon.

His one man show is absolutely top class. Tom’s ‘Piano Jukebox’ set is full of great songs that the audience love. That’s because you t he audience picks the songs and then he plays them. He’ll even have a go at songs he’s never heard of. The music, his stories and jokes make it a packed show that will leave you with a smile on your face and wanting more. Doors are at 1pm the show starts at 2pm and it is £5 on entry.
